  1. Re:I assume that he was using... on Computers Replace Musicians In West End Musical · · Score: 0

    Yup, blame it on GarageBand.

  2. Then why not replace the actors too? on Computers Replace Musicians In West End Musical · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Might as well throw in a video screen, and just play a DVD while you are at it. Think of all the savings.

  3. Re:As A Mac User on Desktop Linux Share Overtaking Macintosh · · Score: 1

    Makes sense to me. Mission control at NASA is predominately Apple laptops, with only a couple of PC desktops.

  4. Re:if only apple was x86 on Desktop Linux Share Overtaking Macintosh · · Score: 0

    "Will MacOS X allow me to easily set up the combination of ctrl-j + l to switch to my web browser, and if that web browser doesn't exist, launch it?"

    I use DRAGTHING for this. It's a shareware app that does about 100 useful things, and this is just one of them.

    " did we already forget the Apple Cube fiasco?"

    In what way was that a "fiasco". Because it didn't sell? In every other way, it was a critical success.

    As for the cursor dissappearing, that is normal behaviour when watching a DVD, but why would you want it to do that at any other time?

  5. Re:All's well with 7.5.5, too on 100 Years of Macintosh · · Score: -1, Troll

    "If Howard Dean had his way, Saddam Hussein would still be in power today, not in prison..."
    -Joe Lieberman

    Joe Lieberman doesn't point out that we might be 160 Billion richer, and might well have Bin Laden and Al Qaeda all wrapped up by now instead of wasting our resourses in Iraq.

  6. Use your ATM card dude! on Paying for Apple iTunes with PayPal · · Score: 1

    I'm sure everyone who has a PayPal account, also has an ATM card. So why use PayPal???

  7. Darwin is still open on No More Mac Tweaking? · · Score: 1

    Apple is closing tweaking of the GUI, the shell that runs on top of the UNIX. The lower levels are still customisable and open to those who are knowledgable in UNIX.

  8. Did they test this with Mac OS X.2? on Netscape 7.0 is Out · · Score: 1

    I download the OS X version, but I can't get past the registration window. I can't enter my screenname, clicking in the field is not recognised, I have to force quit the app.

    I guess it is not compatible with Jaguar.

  9. Re:Not the first time. on Microsoft/Unisys Unix-bashing Site Runs FreeBSD · · Score: 1

    Up until 1999, both Microsoft and Intel web sites had animated gifs that were created in gifbuilder - a Mac OS freeware app.

  10. Re:For those behind the times... on IBM To Leave The Desktop? · · Score: 1

    IBM has the trademark on 'PowerPC' so I guess a PC compatible would be a Mac today.

  11. alien rights = animal rights on Civil Rights For Aliens? · · Score: 1

    The only religion equipped for this is buddhism, and maybe hinduism. In buddhism, all lifeforms are respected, and the question of alien life won't change that point of view. Another reason to embrace animal rights I think. tony
